Health - 21 December 2007

I have to work in an air conditioned place and I've had a problem that other's don't seem to have. That is, when I walk around the building, in about 30 minutes my eyes are becoming irritated, and I often have to close them or use eye drops so they won't feel so dry. I thought of going to the doctor, but is there really a permanent solution he/she could offer, besides, maybe, surgery, which I am unwilling to do? Or is there simply any advice someone could give me?
Thanks for the help.

Hey I am nine months pregnant and expecting my water to break any day now, so I am wondering: With all the medications and sedators, will childbirth still be the most painful thing to ever happen in a woman's life?

I got a cut on my bottom which is a difficult area to treat. For three days it is bleeding and in pain. Whenever I move - walk or sit, the cut bursts open and starts bleeding and hurts so bad. I put bandages, also taped layers of toilet paper- it keeps bleeding through and all my clothes and furniture are getting bloody to the point I haven't been able to go out and don't have insurance to go to the doctor. Please help! I can't take it anymore and am scared there will be a scar once it gets healed if it ever does.

My ex & I dated for 7 years. We broke up 2 years ago and haven't seen each other since. He calls me up out of the blue and says that him & his girlfriend just got genital warts and he thinks they got them from me...I DON'T HAVE GENITAL WARTS! I've been tested for all STD's including AIDS and am totally clean. Is he just grasping at straws to hope his new girlfriend didn't cheat on him or what?

Thursday they were called to pick up the 5 yr old for being interruptive in class. When mom got their, they said he had made the comment "I'll just kill myself". Now, she understood that there had to be an evaluation because of that stupid comment, but he wasn't serious. He got it from somewhere else and was just saying that to get his own way. Well, they called in a mobile psychiatrist to evaluate him. The counselor said things to his mom like "I have never seen a child that bad." "He has a chemical imbalance, bipolar or something"... the problems only occured at school really. The shrink recommended a 3 day evaluation to check for underlying problems and drawing blood, and his mom said, well I could take him to an outpatient center. The shrink was agreeing, then the counselor called her in to his room, and she came back out and said no, he's gonna have to go today for 3 days. He's hearing voices and he's at risk for harming himself. (so she said).... more to it...

flourecent lighting hurts my eyes and reading things oin the computer screen does as well, any bare lighting (like lightbulbs without shades covering them) hurts my eyes. it actually makes me feel sick to my stomach after while unless i just stop looking at anything or go to bed. what types of eye problems would cause this? anyone who answers with "go to an eye doctor" will get a thumbs down which means negative points, i obviously need to get in to an eye doctor that is not my question, if you don't have an answer for me then DONT answer. thanks

I am a 20 year old female. I'm sexually active and want to keep it away from my parents. I've been experiencing menstrual irregularities which i assume could be due to an early miscarriage and want to visit a gynecologist for the first time. I'm under my parents health insurance so how can i keep my visits confidential?

So this girl in a study of mine at school is always complaining about her boob size. She says she's a C cup but since she's only 15, they'll get bigger (I don't she'd care, she's sort of really slutty). She's sort of on the big side so I assume that may have something to do with her cup size.
So, in order to shut her up, I want to know for sure if C cups are big for a 15-year-old, sort of on the chunky-side girl. So, are they big or normal for her?
